Download or read book The Grail of Catholic Emancipation 1793 to 1829 written by Desmond Keenan and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-11-12 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone studying or teaching Irish history, or who likely to be involved in discussions on the subject, should first get the facts straight. It is my aim to provide, as far as possible, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, about one particular period. This book is an addition to my other books Pre-Famine Ireland: Social Structure and Ireland 1800 to 1850. When writing these books I accumulated such a vast quantity of material, often from untouched sources and put it in these two volumes, one dealing with the history of the period and the other dealing with the social and economic aspects of the country at the time. But there was another story which emerged from the newspapers of the time and that was the struggle for Catholic Emancipation between the Catholic Relief Acts of 1793 and 1829. Invariably, in the post-Reformation period in Europe and in the European colonies laws were passed to enforce the religion of the state, and to extirpate if possible dissenting views. To a greater or lesser extent, the religious dissidents were excluded from all offices of state, all positions of importance in the armed forces, from all offices in towns and counties. In some places, though not in all, the very practice of the religion was prohibited. This was the case in England, though not in Ireland. The dissident religion could be attacked in a different way, namely by prohibiting endowments to be made for its institutions. So, for example, Catholic schools could not be endowed. Above all, laws concerning succession to real property or estate could be made to benefit those conforming to the states religion. Though this book is dealing with the repeal of laws against Catholics in a Protestant country, it should be remembered that there was nothing in Ireland comparable to the Inquisition in Spain or the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in France. The policies of the mother country were faithfully followed in their colonies, both in North and South America. In the course of the eighteenth century, the old intolerance began to decline, and many of the laws against religion were relaxed or abolished. In Ireland, by 1793, most of the laws concerning the practice of religion and the tenure of land had been removed. But they were still excluded from the major offices of state, from the Established Churches, from the higher ranks in the armed forces, from the higher positions in the law courts, from the executive positions in towns and counties, and above all from Parliament. When the Catholic Relief Act was passed in 1793, many thought that it would be only a few years until the remaining disabilities were removed. But the next Relief Act was not passed until 1829. This book describes the twists and turns of the story of the Grail, the object of an extended or difficult quest, with all its ups and downs, and twists and turns, its successes and its reverses. This story is not the simplified one of Irish Catholic nationalist mythology showing Daniel OConnell, aided only by the priests, overthrowing the so-called Protestant Ascendancy in Ireland. Indeed this book raises questions whether OConnells incessant interventions did more harm than good, and whether emancipation would have been granted more speedily if he had not tried to help. But it does throw an interesting light on the character of OConnell himself, who was, for good or evil, one of the outstanding characters in Ireland in the first half of the nineteenth century. Of the secondary characters who played their role in this struggle the first mention must go to Sir Edward Bellew. He was just an ordinary country gentleman, never a leader, but he played his part from the start to almost the end. He was noted for his good judgement and moderation, and was never driven away by the abuse heaped on him by the more unruly elements. The part played by Edward Hay who did his best to serve the fractious Catholic leaders should not be forgotte

Book The King and the Catholics

Download or read book The King and the Catholics written by Antonia Fraser and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the eighteenth century, the Catholics of England lacked many basic freedoms under the law: they could not serve in political office, buy or inherit land, or be married by the rites of their own religion. So virulent was the sentiment against Catholics that, in 1780, violent riots erupted in London—incited by the anti-Papist Lord George Gordon—in response to the Act for Relief that had been passed to loosen some of these restrictions. The Gordon Riots marked a crucial turning point in the fight for Catholic emancipation. Over the next fifty years, factions battled to reform the laws of the land. Kings George III and George IV refused to address the “Catholic Question,” even when pressed by their prime ministers. But in 1829, through the dogged work of charismatic Irish lawyer Daniel O’Connell and the support of the great Duke of Wellington, the watershed Roman Catholic Relief Act finally passed, opening the door to the radical transformation of the Victorian age. Gripping, spirited, and incisive, The King and the Catholics is character-driven narrative history at its best, reflecting the dire consequences of state-sanctioned oppression—and showing how sustained political action can triumph over injustice.

Download or read book Catholic Emancipation written by Wendy Hinde and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1992 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roman Catholicism remained a threat to the English constitution for three centuries following the Reformation, and virulent hatred of popery was widespread among Parliament and public alike. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, with Europe in revolutionary turmoil, Britain's stability and safety were seen to depend on defending the Protestant constitution, and to many this meant continuing to exclude Catholics from political and public life--disabilities bitterly resented especially among the predominantly Catholic Irish. In this book, Wendy Hinde examines the interaction of events and personalities in the sixteen months from January 1828 to April 1829 which brought the issue to a crisis, culminating in the defiant election of Catholic activist Daniel O'Connell for County Clare in July 1828 and 'a glorious and bloodless victory' for the Irish Catholics and their unlikely champion, the Duke of Wellington. Wellington stood firm against strong public opposition, fierce resistance in the Commons and the Lords, and the intransigence of King George IV, who believed that he was bound by his coronation oath to maintain the rights and privileges of the Church of England. Finally, on 13 April 1829, after earlier sacking the entire Cabinet and changing his mind overnight, the embattled King put his signature to the Catholic relief bill, and five weeks later the first Irish MP took his seat in Parliament. In tracing this vexed passage of a bill described by one of its opponents as 'the most fatal, the most infatuated and suicidal measure ever adopted by a British Parliament', Wendy Hinde considers Catholic emancipation in relation to other important aspects of the contemporary political scene: pressure for parliamentary reform, the changing relationship between Lords and Commons, the declining power of the monarch and the rise of Irish nationalism. She shows that Catholic emancipation did not fatally undermine the English constitution, as many had feared; nor, as others had hoped, did it bring peace, prosperity and an end to sectarian discord to the Irish people. However, in demonstrating that constitutional change was possible and that public pressure could be brought to bear on the government without bloodshed, it opened the way for the further political, social and economic reforms of the 1830s.
